I hope you find the video presentation “An Inconvenient Truth” enlightening. Perhaps it will stimulate you to do further investigation into one of the most significant global issues of our time.

As you watch the video focus on the science; look for cause and effect. How do we know this? Why does this happen? So far you have been presented with the results of 50 years of research work showing CO2 levels and global temperatures covering 650,000 years. You have seen photographic evidence of retreating glaciers across the globe and some evidence of increasing storm severity. Much more will come tomorrow.

You will be designing a poster titled “The Science and Solutions of Global Warming” showing causes, effects and recourses so be sure you are taking notes. I’ll provide you with additional resources, but you could be looking for some now.

For anyone who will not be in class tomorrow I will show the rest of the video again Thursday before school starting at 8:30 and after school starting at 3:55.
